Therefore its a possibility that at some time it could be called at interrupt time, but mostly like not. Thanks for pointing out that. We need to quiese io before and after calling spi_schedule_dv(), therefore I prefer if we spawn a work thread from mptspi, then call mptspi_dv_device. Attached updated patch.
